I met fellow jewelry designer Gloria at a dinner party. When she came in, everyone stopped chatting to admire her exquisite Alaia coat.
I was hoping our coats would get mixed up in the closet so that she would get mine and I would get hers, but no such luck.
The Owl's Closet says
wow, that’s a gorgeous coat! i love the full skirt detailing. i would want her coat to get mixed up with mine, too haha have a great weekend, wendy!
Sandra says

She’s beautiful. What a face! And the coat is of course fabulous too!
Style Artisan says
Since I just spent the big bucks on my faux fur coat, I’ll let you have this coat. I want that house!!! It looks amazing!
Sweety P says
I adore her coat!
Amanda says
Love the coat. It really is too bad that you didn’t end up with some how. You would be one foxy lady in it. π
Senti says
ohhhh, I totally identify. I’ve been craving such a coat since one started going out on dates with Nick Rhodes. …okay, so the lady wearing the coat was dating Nick Rhodes, but you know what I mean. π
(see web link for images of the coat being wined and dined at all the best London parties by Mr Rhodes)
stacy says
Oh, what a beautiful coat!! And she looks so French… so pretty.
Alicia says
That looks amazeballs. Just amazeballs.
I’m sure you could still mix them up some sort of way. The opportunity will be presented sooner or later. LOL. =P
belle de ville says
Yeah…I’d totally mistake my coat for hers!
Nubiasnonsense says
wow that coat is exquisite.. I would wish it got mixed up also..
How are you wendy? doing anything exciting for fashion week?
WendyB says
Nubia, I have a jewelry sale on Feb. 10, a non-fashion-related fundraiser to chair on Feb. 13 and the IFB conference on Feb. 15. If I make it through those I just want to hide for a while.

Bad luck on the closet mix up not happening!
Anna Jane says
Haha I just loved the last sentence about hoping your coats would get mixed up.
This just goes to show that the right coat can really be a showstopper – she looks so proud to be wearing it and damn right so she should!
Great pics WendyB π

A gorgeous woman in a stunning coat. Next time, just club her and steal the coat. You can run fast enough to get away.

Had to smile about your “perfect plan”, Wendy π
The shape of the Alaia coat is gorgeous!
Sheila says
I love that coat! I can totally see it on you.
ThatGirl39 says
That is one glamourous lady and one gorgeous coat! Sure beats my long black horse blanket number that I’ve been wearing day in and day out on the school run! I’m bored with the cold. Bring on the sunshine already! Any you’re so right about the Reiss dress… I know I’m going to have a sleepless night about it tonight… and sweaty palms… and itchy feet…
Jess says
ooh so pretty, I’m sure she wouldn’t have minded you ‘borrowing’ it for a short while!
Marta from With Love... says
Ooh wow… it is fantastic! Lucky lady π
I. Grace says
If I have that Alaia coat, I’d wear it all year round even in the dead heat of summer! Love the cut, tres chic! =)
ohladye says
I would have ambushed the coatroom, grabbed the coat and run off with it draped across my shoulders! Haha.
I’m 99% sure I’m going to be buying another bauble from you soon! Just have to figure out which one is “appropriate”!
Shawn says
Oh my—–love, love love, love it! Why don’t they make more coats out there like that?
